FALSE TEETH FOR A HOESE. A favourite carrige horse, formerly the property of a Roman Catholic priest in Durham, has recently undergone a skilful operation at the hands of a veterinary. The animal had suffered excruciating pain from decaying teeth, and its present owner, in order to prolong its existence, has had the offending molars successfully extracted and eight artificial ones substituted. For years past it could not properly masticate its ordinary food, and had become accustomed to boiled milk and bread, boiled vegetables, etc,, which is still its favourite diet. WARMER IN GAOL. A defendant at Halifax pleaded for three months in gaol to tide him over the cold weather. Besides he would get a shilling when liberated, which would enable him to start business. He was accommodated. JUST WHAT EVERYONE SHOULD DO. . Mr S. G. Mather, proprietor " Chronicle," Normanton (Q), always keeps a bottle of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera, and Diarrhoea Remedy at hand, ready for emergency, for there is no telling when it may be needed. He says : —" It completely cured me of chronic dysentery, from which I had suffered for years. I feel confident that Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera, and Diarrhoea Remedy saved the life of my infant daughter, who, when teething, was severely attacked with diarrhoea, and was given up by the doctors."

When the workmen employed at the Abernant claypit Trefynant, Ruabon, went to their work, they were surprised to see a bird flitting about in the gloom, 1350 ft from the twilight. The imprisoned bird had evidently sought refuge from the hard weather, and had flown through the pit borings in the darkness to where the workmen heard its piteous calls. The bird proved to be a robin, and ravenously devoured food from the hands of the men. RHEUMATIC SUFFERERS.

The muni s'pallty of Melbourne has organised a troop of dog scavengers for the cleaning of the sewers, some of which are too small to allow of the passage of men. The dogs have been trained to drag a cord with a brush at the end of it from one end of the pipe to the other. BABY COUGH MUST NEVER LINGER. Nothing is more distressing than to see a helpless little infant suffering with a cough, and to bo fearful of using a remedy which may contain some harmful ingredient. The makers of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy positively guarantee that this preparation does not contain opium in any form, or any other harmful substance. Mothers may confidently give iliis remedy to their iitile ones. It gives prompt relief, and is perfectly safe. It always cures, and cures quickly. For sale by D. A. Jolly and Sons. MILE A MINUTE THROUGH SNOW. The New York Central Railroad has obtained excellent results with an electric locomotive during trials through snow. With eighteen inches of snow on the level, and huge drifts here and there, the engine ploughed its way through easily and made seventy miles an hour. QUITE DIFFERENT. The ordinary cough medicine may soothe the throat, but it has no power to heal; recovery is not complete, and a second attack is more liable to follow. Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is quite different, because it not only soothes, but also heals, so that the affected parts are restored to a healthy condition, and the danger of a future attack is removed. For sale by D. A. Jolly and Sons. COMPLETELY CURED AFTER NINETEEN YEARS. After nineteen years suffering from rheumatism, Rheumo brought relief to Mr. Chas. Dowsett, the well-known chimney-sweep of 54, Murphy Street, Wellington. Read what Mr. Dowsett writes: —" I thank you very much for the use of Rheumo. I have used nearly everything in existence for rheumatics, but found no relief till I used your Rheumo. After nineteen years suffering it is a great comfort to be free from pain." Give Rheumo a fair trial, and it will cure you just as it cured Mr. Dowsett. Your grocer or chemist sells it at 2/6 and 4/6 a bottle. NINE BALLS FOR ONE MATCH. Stalybridge not only lost their footballs, but also the match with St. Helen's Recreation. Along one side of the ground runs a river, which was swollen, and eight balls were kicked into it and carried away down stream. No fewer than thirty-five minutes were lost during the production of fresh footbails, so that the game occupied 125 minutes. An old pedlar, named Meade, who has just, died penniiesa in New York, once made £250,0GJ by the discovery of a chomical process of preserving meat. Then he went to the Californian coast and spent all be had in a fruitless search for sunken Spanish treasure ships. Ha chartered a special vessel, which was wrecked, but he continued his search by successive expeditions until he was a ruined man.
